# Why I Dislike Biohacking
## Bullshit or Unfair Advantage?
I've been thinking a lot about biohacking lately. It seems like it's either complete bullshit or it falls into the category of unfair advantages.
Imagine taking steroids for a sport. It's cheating, right? Well, biohacking feels a bit like that, but for coders. Taking pills and drugs to enhance your cognitive abilities feels like an unfair advantage.
## Unsafety Concerns
Even if biohacking worked as advertised, it's still unsafe. There are potential side effects and long-term health risks associated with taking these substances.
I'm not convinced that biohacking is worth the risk. I think it's better to focus on improving my skills and knowledge through traditional methods.
